A striking Calcite specimen with Chalcopyrite and Pyrite from Hubei, China, featuring a translucent, jagged Calcite formation with natural texture and depth. The crystal displays beautiful internal rainbow reflections when light passes through, enhancing its layered, glass-like structure.
One face of the specimen is adorned with a concentrated layer of green and bronzish metallic Chalcopyrite resting atop the Calcite, creating a shimmering, forest-like appearance when viewed from above. Delicately scattered across this surface are tiny Pyrite crystals, including subtle flashes of iridescent oil-slick colours and a rare blue-toned crystal that add captivating points of contrast and sparkle.
A compact yet highly detailed collector specimen, prized for its rainbow translucency, metallic mineralisation, and the beautiful interplay of Calcite, Chalcopyrite, and Pyrite in a single natural formation.
